ONE YEAR: A Special Message
Introducing some new Intercalation Station projects.
🎉 Intercalation is 1 year old!
Thank you for being a loyal reader of our newsletter, and welcome to all our new readers!
It’s wild to think that what started as a side project during the first month of the UK national lockdown turned into such a large community of battery professionals around the world. We’re so excited that so many of you are just as enthusiastic about batteries as we are.
Our announcement: we’re going paid. Don’t worry, your favorite news updates are not going anywhere. We’ve been working on new content covering deeper aspects of the battery value chain.
The goal is to grow our knowledge base and extend our reach to different segments of the battery world. We want to dive deeper and see wider. Click the button to support us, and read on to learn more about our plans.
